If the tooth wall of caries is lost, it depends on the situation. For example, caries, although the tooth wall is lost, but after the tooth wall is lost, the remaining tooth tissue is still enough, then in this case we can repair the tooth defect through the method of filling teeth, or after doing root canal treatment, the method of making braces, so that the teeth can continue to function. Of course, if the caries tooth wall is lost, but the remaining tooth tissue is not enough to support the tooth function, then in this case, such as residual roots or residual crowns, you can pull out the tooth, pull out the tooth and then do denture restoration. Therefore, if the caries tooth wall is lost, if the remaining tissue is more, it can fill the tooth. If the remaining tissue is too small, then the tooth should be pulled out.
